  Hello, I'm Pachu Kannan. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Alexander Baillie-Cochrane, 1st Baron Lamington, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Pachu Kannan (talk) 09:51, 27 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

I would like to link a person's name on a page to an already existing wiki page - how do I do that ? I searched the help sections but didn't find it very clear.Lfmartin999 (talk) 10:09, 27 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Links to other Wikipedia articles are done by placing the title of the target page in double brackets, like this, [[Joe Biden]] gives Joe Biden. 331dot (talk) 10:27, 27 August 2021 (UTC)Reply

Speedy deletion nomination of Edward Duncan Stoney

edit

Hello Lfmartin999,

I wanted to let you know that I just tagged Edward Duncan Stoney for deletion, because it seems to be copied from another source, probably infringing copyright.

If you feel that the article shouldn't be deleted and want more time to rewrite it in your own words, you can contest this deletion, but don't remove the speedy deletion tag from the top.

You can leave a note on my talk page if you have questions. Thanks!

  Hi Lfmartin999! I noticed that you recently marked an edit as minor at Raymond O'Neill, 4th Baron O'Neill that may not have been. "Minor edit" has a very specific definition on Wikipedia – it refers only to superficial edits that could never be the subject of a dispute, such as typo corrections or reverting obvious vandalism. Any edit that changes the meaning of an article is not a minor edit, even if it only concerns a single word. Please see Help:Minor edit for more information. Thank you.
